Lyrics
I'm renowned for the excellence of my wine cellars The handiest hideout in Montemarte Poor boys, I'd forgotten all about them Let's see Who's down there tonight? (Jojo les Yeux Sales) Jojo, the dirty eyes (Roberto les Diams) Roberto, the rocks (Persil le Noir) Persil, the shady (Frangipane) The flower Noble, strong and pure Brave and in our prime Here we stand, the creme de la creme of crime We have laws of our own That we never break When we rob the rich it's for the poor man's sake (Poor man's sake) Noble sons of France When it comes to high finance We are very worthy sons of France We can fix you dreams Dreams of paradise That's why we're the creme de la creme of vice We provide happiness For a modest sum With a hypodermic of some opium (Opium) Noble sons of France You can tell it at a glance We are very worthy sons of France Polyte la Mou (Polyte the Bull) Also known as Le Boss One thing we believe Love will always win That's why we're the creme de la creme of sin Love for all is our aim For a little fee 'Cause the better things in life are never free Never free Noble sons of France In the service of romance We are very worthy sons of France Oh, it's you, Inspector I thought it was the police I know all the tricks Of the oldest craft That's why I'm the creme de la creme of graft He needs us, we need him That's what friends are for We keep him and he keeps us Inside the law Inside the law Noble sons of France In the service of romance We are very worthy noble sons of France (sons of France) In the service of romance (noble sons of France) We are very worthy noble Sons of France
